Patent CA-2595315-A1 (CA)
Title: Reduced-emissions combustion utilizing multiple-component metallic combustion catalyst
Inventor: VALENTINE JAMES M
IPC: C10L1/30
Filed: 2006-01-19
Abstract: Diesel fuels containing low concentrations of specific bimetallic or trimetallic fuel-borne catalysts reduce particulates and other emissions without the use of after treatment devices, such as filters or catalysts, e.g., diesel particulate filters (DPF's) or diesel oxidation catalysts (DOCs) in the case of diesel engines. By utilizing a fuel containing a fuel-soluble catalyst comprised of platinum and at least one additional metal comprising cerium and/or iron, production of pollutants of the type generated by incomplete combustion is reduced. Preferred fuel borne catalyst levels will be low, e.g., from 0.05 to 0.5 ppm for platinum and 3 to 8 ppm for cerium and/or iron, thereby providing effective engine out emissions reductions without any aftertreatment device. Performance of lightly catalyzed aftertreatment devices will be improved with the subject invention.
Patent CA-2595365-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SHEEHAN JOSEPH W
IPC: H04W4/90
Filed: 2005-04-25
Abstract: In a network overlay wireless location solution for a GSM or UMTS  communications network, spectrum utilization can be made far more efficient by synchronizing the BTSs, which can require distributing a timing signal to all BTSs, or installing a satellite-based timing unit in each site. The present invention provides an architecture in which Location Measurement Units (LMUs) are installed at some or all of the BTS sites for the purpose of locating wireless devices. The LMUs are used to measure the timing of various uplink and/or downlink signals in the cellular network in support of various location techniques. These LMUs may include a GPS-based timing reference module, which may be used to synchronize the time bases of all LMUs. To reduce the overall cost of BTS synchronization, the LMU distributes timing signals, including a periodic electrical pulse as well as time description information, on a serial or other interface, which is available for other nodes to use for synchronization. The format of the electrical pulse and time description information is modified through hardware and software to adapt to the various formats required by various BTS types. For example, the BTSs with co-located LMUs can receive a synchronization signal with little or no hardware cost. The External Interface Unit (EIU) described herein may be used to adapt to various BTS hardware formats. For BTS sites not equipped with an LMU, a Timing Measurement Unit (TMU) can be used. The TMU has the single function of providing BTS time signals in the same formats as provided by the LMUs. The time signals provided by the TMUs are synchronous to the signals provided by the LMUs. This timing-only TMU has a lower cost than the LMU because it does not support the uplink or downlink signal measurement functions. This approach allows a cellular operator to synchronize BTSs at a relatively low cost.

Patent CA-2599521-A1 (CA)
Inventor: REED RUSSELL
IPC: A61F9/02
Filed: 2007-08-30
Abstract: The goggles of the invention utilize a substantially rigid frame with separate top and bottom individually rotatable elements, namely an upper browbar and a lower nosepiece, that firmly capture the lens from above and below. The lens is further secured to the frame by projections on each of the browbar and nosepiece which fit through apertures in the lens. At the top, a post which projects forwardly from the frame is received in the well of the browbar by snap-fit engagement. At the bottom, a prong on the rotatable nosepiece passes through a bottom aperture of the lens and is received in a recess of a bottom portion of the frame by snap-fit engagement. The apertures and cooperating projections are preferably located along the center of a one-piece lens. Thus, the rotatable browbar and nosepiece capture the lens top and bottom by edgewise compression and hold the lens front-to-back.

Abstract: Records are produced describing how a passenger uses a transport system in relation to other passengers. A transport server (1001) receives (203, 401) an identifier of a requested drop-off point and determines (204, 205, 403, 407) an identifier of a requested pick-up point. It also determines (405, 413, 803) a list of stopping point identifiers, which list includes the identifiers of said requested pick-up and drop-off points and constitutes an itinerary for a transport vehicle. A list of those passengers is determined (804) that have requested transport in the same vehicle. For each passenger on said list of passengers, there is determined (801, 804, 901, 904) which passenger-specific group of legs between stopping points belong to the transport requested by that passenger, and calculated (802, 805, 806, 807, 808, 902, 904, 905, 906, 907) a record that represents the relation between the passenger-specific group of legs and those other groups of legs that are specific to other passengers.
